Accelerated transit, whether by means of steam on the water, or locomotive power on the Railway, is becoming generally admitted for all parts and places. In the formation of a Railway, however important to obtain the straightest lino, and best inclinations, it should be considered also that the necessary cost of construction re quires the most certain means of return for the capital employed ; this can only be obtained by taking the existing population and means, with the greatest a d van t ages t o ne i g hb ouring di str i cts, se as to render the communication complete by branches, when it cannot be effected by the direct line. With this view, the Messrs. Rennie have been directed to survey a line through Maidstone and the centre of the county, to Canterbury and the coast ; being the nearest and most useful approximation to the largest towns in Kent ; thus conferring the greatest local benefit : and to reach the coast at some harbour, always available, so as to be connected by the shortest and most expeditious route with the Continent; and the projected Railways to Paris and the South of France ; to Brussels and Vienna; and all other, the various lines in anticipation on the Continent, even to St. Petersburgh. The surveys have been carefully made, and the plans and sections prepared for Parliament; and the Committee feel so strongly in favour of both the Harbour as a national benefit, and the Railway as the only proper line for Kent, that they doubt not but that the contribution of five shillings per share will be sufficient to establish their case, and they pledge themselves not to exceed that sum. Five shillings per share to be paid down on the appropriation of the share, and 51. per share when requisite to comply with the standing orders of the House of Commons : and if not then paid the original share will become ferfeited. Applications for shares to be made, (if by letter, post paid,) to Messrs. Masterman, Peters and Co., Nicholas -lane; Messrs. Cockburns, Whitehall ; or to Mr. Amsinck, 34, Abchurch-lane.

TUESDAY - - - Tins day the adjourned meeting of the citizens, upon the subject of combination, took place at. the Royal Exchange. The room was crowded with tradesm en b e f ore t h e chair was taken, and a great crowd g gathered round the building of per sons, who could not get in. Shortly after twelve o'clock the LORD MAYOR was called to the Chair. His Lordship read the following letter which ho ns i t P n . e]s —: square, Jan: 25, 1834. had received from Mr. Hume, Sin, —Observing in the newspapers that it is intended to procure the erection of a Mechanics' Institution, with large halls fcr lectures, and preserving models in the arts and sciences, and separate apartments for the meeting of tbe trades of Dublin, &c. &c., I request you will, at the proper time, )ut subscriber towards that laudable and national y ages —. nnposed upon it; but the practices and habits of secret combination, which had grown up under the unjust laws, have not been put an end to in many instances. I know that, generally speak ing, all proceedings of the trades have been open, and the secret oaths have been discontinued ; but no trouble has been taken by the Government, or by large Committees, to instruct the working classes, and to impress on them the leading prin ciples of freedom of labour and of action essential to the full prosperity of the manufacturers of the kingdom. I have seen, with deep regret, the existence of erroneous opinions in Dublin on these very vital subjects ; and I consider the course proposed, of erecting proper buildings, where ir.struction may be afforded, will be one of the best courses you can adopt to promote peace and prosperity in your city of Dublin. I hope that with the spread of National Education some pains will be taken to instruct the artisans of Dublin in the advantages of free labour, and protection to persons and pro perty. as the best means of improving their situations, and promoting additional employment and liberal wages. The Working Men's ,association in London, are making praiseworthy efforts to promote National Education, which must, in time, correct the erroneous opinions now existing on many subjects, and in none more than that of wages. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, JOSEPH HUME. Mr. CLASSON, the Secretary, said he did not appear there , . ,as the opponent of legal and constitutional combination.— (Continued cheers.) The LORD MAYOR said, that although he would not object to. expressions of approbation, yet, when it was thus prolonged, ' it interrupted the business of the day, and he would wish to have it discontinued. Mr. CLASSON then continued to aldress the meeting. He : trusted that the disgraceful cehibition made upon the last oe ,casion would not be repeated. The tradesmen only injured - thenisolves by such conduct. The mechanics suffered them_ 'selves to be misled in other ways besides this. They wero •he dupes of the English and Scotch Trades' Unions. Mr. - O'Connell had observed upon the last day that the carpenters vere less liable to suffer from the decay of trade than other ' rtisans, as no one could import a house. It was true they could not; but they imported window-frames, chimney-pieces, ' and all the important requisites which a carpenter would sup- ' ply. Mr. Classon then read the resolution condemnatory of ;Hegel combination and a limitation of apprentices, which had been put at the last meeting before the riot began. i. - Mr. KELLY, while he advocated legal combination, would defend Mr. O'Connell from the personal attacks wlich had been mado upon bins. He could not doubt but his motives in tak ing up the question were good, and the tradesmen should thank him for chewing them what the law on the subject was. —( Cheers and histes.) Mr. M‘MumAN addressed the meeting on the resolution. The; had - been told that combination was contrary to law, but. he would say it was also contrary to the rights of man. Wl:at_ was eeerenticeship? It wse the education of ie citi-erS. - Heawas not going to argue so plain a point as that education should be free. If people were allowed to interfere with mechanical education, they might also interefere with intellectual education.—( Hear, hear.) Ile wanted to know what was the object of restricting the right of edtteatiou ? Monopoly was the answer; and it therefore was utterly untenable. Cate of the consequences of this 'monopoly was the depreciatiou of the wages of what The wages of a bricklayer we re 28 s .

The Lord interfere vag e s Mayor asked if he were going to speak to the resolution, or to propose an a mendment? If the latter, it should be written. Mr. Wieereus said that on the last day he had wished to propose an amendment, but he could not get a place to write it. He did not consider that Mr. O'Connell had any claim to interfere between the parties opposed, the employers and employed. They were very capable cf doing it themselves. —( Cheers.) He asked Mr. O'Connell if he had not on the last day crossed Iris fingers, and grinned terrifically at Mr. O'Brien, and that was the cause of the really disgraceful ter mination of the last meeting ?_( Confusion) He said that the Trades' Unionists were the cause of this confusion. He then alluded to the outrages that disgrace the City, which he declared arose from combination, but not owing to the trades. He mentioned the instances of a Mr. Nolan, a plumber, who close to Newgate. He expressed had no quarrel with his men, and yet was beaten; and of noon odnayMr. Armstrong, and would describe Pemberton, a regular bricklayer, whom he met after having i t n h et the assault it as a base, bloody, and brutal a ssault—words that Mr. O'Con nell had used with regard to his present fiieeds. The LORD MAYOR called him to order, for he had not yet said a singlo word about the subject of the resolution, Mr. Wieereeis said he was done with assaults, for he thought beenhis horrorbea teant too much had been made of them. He denied that t h ere was any difference b e tween_ the men and th e masters i n h i s trade, and he thought Mr sa. O'Connell m i g h t b e better employed than he then was.—((neers and hi sses. ) H e was occupying too much of the tradesmen's time and too much of the time of a man who ou ght to be engaged a b out the affairs of Canada. —( Cheers.) This introducti on o f combination WAS a mere subterfuge to avoid the_ discussion upon the Canadi an a ff a i rs . lie would fairly state that he believed all Mr. O'Connell's zeal about combination was Only a cloak to cover his shame ful desertion o f the Canadians. I n conc l us i on h e moved that the meeting should adjourn sine die. Mr. MURRAY rose to speak amid cheers and hisses, but gave way to Mr. O'Connell, who said he would second the motion. ___( Cheers and groans, and great confusion.) Mr. O'CoNNELL then seconded the motion.—( Cheers,) His reason for doing so, he said, was that it was impossible to carry on the business with the oonfusion and disorder which prevailed. He availed himself of the opportunity of so many tradesmen being present, for explaining what combinations he were legal, and what were illegal • and in till , ' explanation read the following abstract of the law as ' regards Trades' Com bination which he had prepared' for th The law of Combination of Workmen e n ti nc l a Ll n e to be thus— I. The common law which makes ' inbin t• of every cc) aron h workmen to raise wages to be illegal, • is repealed by the Gt Geo. IV., c. 129. Therefore workmen may now combine to raise wages, but that combination must be by •confined a meeting to the per sons present at the meeting, and cannot be extended to per sons not present ,at such meeting. A combination to raise wages may also be legally entered into, to raise wages g into by per sons enterin • an agreement, ver b a l or wr i t t en for that pur pose, but it must b e confined to persons entering into that a g reement, and not to others. I now specify what acts by ; they are co mbinatio n are illegal* also illegal if done by only one individual. N. B. In this specilieetion I use the word neer/man—to specify journeyman or manufacturer, or other person hired or employed in any manufacture, trade, or business. Ist.

That is, force or violence to person or property, or threats, J.- intimidation, or to molest or to obstruct any workman in any ndeavour to get, him to leave or abandon his work. This forms a second class of seven offences. This one class is for actually forcing a workman from his work. The second class is for endeavouring to force him to abandon his work. A third class of seven offences consists in using any of the above suety ' as to prevent any workman from being em ployed by any person. A fourth class for endeavouring to prevent any workman from being employed. A fifth class for preventing any workman from accepting emplo) ment. A sixth class for endeavouring to prevent any workman from PRIDE sd. accepting employment. A seventh and eighth class, for endeavouring to prevent any workman from being hired. An eighth and ninth class consist of preventing or endeavouring to prevent any workman from accepting work from any person. Having pointed out to them the provisions of the Act under which the tradesmen were permitted to combine at all, he said he came there to discuss the point whether a Parliamen tary inquiry should not be moved.for, to ascertain whether the law ought to.continue or not. If it were a bad law it ought •to be repealed; if a good one .it should be carried into full - effect.—(Groans and hisses.) .Mr. Williams said that the dispute should be left between the, employer and the employe! Now he would read a little book that would show how t question then would bo settled. The book was entitle! . ‘• Rules for the Community of Carpenters,-by John Cassidy. The Bth resolution stated that—(Cries of " Question," a " Read the first resolution. ') He (Mr. O'Connell wour read the Bth first, just because they did not wish to he it read—they were afraid to hear it.—(Cheers.) This res' lution stated that "no carpenter employer be allow to take more than three apprentices at any time, t indented and one transferred. You will not allow a man take three original apprentices.—(Hear, and groans.) No he would read the first resolution which they were so anzio to hear read. It says, " that every person from the countr not being more than one month in the city of Dublin, or withi . ten miles thereof; must pay seven guineas to become a me ber of this community, and ten guineas for the admission !' colts—each person paying one-half on admission." W as n .. this a pretty sample o f the 'kind of rules contained in thi book ?—(Cries of " Question," " Order," groans and lou., cheers.) The first rule is a breach of three distinct clauses i! 1 ties At of ,Parliament ; tile second does the same thing the fourth—he would read it—said, " That no country mem, ber be allowed to take apprentices until three years a membe of this community."—(Hear, and cries of " Question." What right have you to do this. —( Hear, and cheers.) A Tradesman—What's that to you. Mr. O'CONNELL proceeded to read the remaining rules contained in the b oo k, am id s t greatest uproar and confusion,t Mr. O'Connell proceeds—l have but tittle more to say, and say it I will. Had you listened to the number of employers who came hero to-day, but you want not to let the employers be heard—(No, no)—you are, by forcing all men upon-them, robbing the good workman--( A voice, " It's a lie," met by cheers from Mr. O'Connell's friends)--robbing their children. —( Shouts of " No.") Mr. Mackie has shown—( Groans)— that when two orphans were left an his hands by the plague— ( Interruption)—when the carpenters, by their combination— (Confusion)—l hear from the bricklayers that they are op- , pressed by the carpenters (O'Brien is that true ? No.) Mr. ' O'Connell was so much interrupted that only portions of his sentences could be 4eard. You turn half a million of wages out cirDublititY ;our combination.—(No.) Ireland has immense cagital irt labour; and if fair rate of wages allowed, the cheap neat of labour which you cannot prevent—(Groans)—would augment the number of em pl o y ers , an d wou ld l eave t h e b otch in his poverty, because lie was a botch.—a-(Confusion.) I came here to change these things, I was interrupted. Every clause of the law I read was interrupted. --(" No.") I read the resolutions of the carpenters, and was interrupted. I wished to show, by production of employers, the mischief you, were doing. I was not allowed, under these circumstances —shouting down the law.—(" No, no,!") Interrupting me now in my recapitulation; it is idle under these circumstances to proceed. I call on the meeting, Unanimously, to dissolve. —( Cries of " No, no I") When Mr. O'Connell had concluded, Mr. Murray rose to ad dress the meeting amid mingled cheers, hisses, and cries of ‘• Question." , _ - Mr. Sheriff QUINTON rose to order. The question before the chair was the dissolution of the meeting, and the Lord Mayor could entertain no . ether. MUCRA Y_lf I must not be heard, I will sit d3wri.— ( Cries of " Order," and " Hear, hear.") Mr. O'CostaLr.--.Y ou will be heard on the question before the chair. Mr. MURRAY said, be would confine himself to the question. Hu did not think there was any necessity for Mr. O'Connell to interfere between the employers and the tradesmen.— ( Question.) He did not think it fair., to prevent him from speaking when he had been attached.—(Hear, hear, and question.) On the question of the limitation of apprentices, a great many of the employers were with them. The regula tion was strictly observed in the chandler's trade, and the sad dlers were about to adopt the system. If the true employers had anything to complain of, they would have been there to state it, hut they were not. Why was not Mr. Reed, of Summer Hill, or Mr. Fair, of --street there. In truth, they were not dissatisfied.—(Cheers, and cries of " Question.") Did Mr. Gibbert Coalmine, arraign them, or did Mr. Buller nr Me. , Williams •cl 7, so - ? , - - ,-(Cheors, 'arid .etieeof Question.") - The CHAIRMAN said that the speaker had not kept to the resolution proposed by one of his own body and seconded by Mr. O'Connell, but rambled to other subjects.—( Hisses and confusion.) He would -now put the question of adjournment. Cries of " Aye, aye," " No, no," and great confusion. ) The CHAIRMAN, amid great confusion and uproar, intimated that the motion had been carried in the affirmative. Mr. O'CONNELL then moved High Sheriff Jones into tha chair, and the usual vote of thanks to the Chairman being put and carried, the meeting broke up. Mr. O'CONNELL left the room surrounded by a number of his friends, followed by several of the new police, amid groans and hisses from the tradesmen. Some of the trades wished to hold a meeting, with P. O'Brien in the chair, but the idea was given up. DINNER OF THE SUBSCRIBERS TO LLOYD'S. Yesterday a dinner of the subscribers took place at the City of London Tavern, at which George Richard Robinson, Esq., presided, supported on the right by Mr. Alderman Thomp son, M.P., and the Hon. William Fraser ; and on the left by William Crawford, Esq., M. P., Aaron Chapman, Esq., M. P., and Archibald Hastie, Esq., M.P. Upwards of 300 gentlemen sat down to dinner. The cloth having been removed, and Non nobis amine having been sung by Messrs. Broadhurst, Atkins, Fitzwilliam, and Jolly, • • The CHAIRMAN proposed the health of our most Gracious Sovereign, which was drank with three times three, and the national anthem was sung by the gentlemen present. The healths of the Queen Dowager and the rest of the Royal Family ; glee, " Here's a health to Queen Adelaide ;" and the Army and Navy, followed by the national anthem of Rule Britannia, were then drank with the usual honours. The CHAIRMAN then gave as a toast what he was sure re quired in that place neither preface nor comment—" Ships, Colonies, and Commerce." The CHAIRMAN, in proposing " The healths of the Lord Mayor and Corporation of the City of London," would ill dis charge his duty if he did not advert in a marked manner to the praiseworthy exertions of those individuals during the late calamitous event, the destruction of their Royal Exchange.— ( Cheers.) The merchants assembling at Lloyd's had already passed a vote of thanks to that body, on whom, in conjunction with the Mercer's Company, then devolved the duty of recon structing the building in a manner worthy of the great city whose ornament it was ; and he might be permitted to express a hope that the new building would not only be worthy of the character of that great metropolis, hut would combine perfect accommodation for the merchants and the underwriters of London.—( Loud cheers.) The toast having been drunk with three times three, Mr. Alderman THOMPSON returned thanks, and was received with much applause. He felt the highest personal gratifica tion that the body with which he was connected stood so high in their estimation. 111, indeed, would the body to which he had the honour to belong, discharge its duty, if it neglected the interests of Lloyd's—a society which had grown up and prospered with the growth and the prosperity of the commer cial interests of the country ; for, he would venture to • say, there was not in the world any other society embracing so great an extent of commercial intelligence and commercial know ledge as was to found every day at Lloyd's..—(Cheers.) But the advantages of this knowledge were not confined to the members of that society ; they were felt by the whole commercial world; and therefore it was that he held it impossible that those individuals on whom devolved the duty of rebuilding the Exchange could be considered as pro moting the real interests of the city of London if they did not make adequate provision for the wants of the gentlemen then assembled.—( Cheers.) It should be recollected that it was this body of gentlemen which first raised the flame of pa triotism when they came forward with their subscription in aid of those who had fallen in the battles of their country, and to relieve the wants of the widow and the orphan ; and the country would but ill repay the debt if it did not afford those patriotic gentlemen ample accommodation.—( Cheers.) The CrIAIRNIAN, in proposing " The health of the Duke of Wellington, as master and elder brother of the Trinity Cor pwoi potation," t commercial ait affairs,had tal t i o e n k t n o mv his t h l o c t , ability by a I u o t g h c w o hic e h c ti othen Noble Duke discharged the duties of these offices. The Noble Duke, possessing as he did 'an intellect which enabled him to grasp, not only the more gigantic objects, but also those which were more minute, was of the greatest benefit to commerce as the head of these two bodies.—(Cheers.) He need not particularly rccal to their recollection his eminent services when the Continental enemies of this country had arrived at tile height of their power. All their memories would revert with delight to the field of Waterloo, where the imperial eagle sank abashed before the genius of Wellington. The toast was then drunk with three times three and one cheer more, and " Sec the conquering hero comes" was swig by the glee singers. Mr. CHAPMAN raurned thanks on behalf of the Trinity house. The CHAIRMAN then gave " The Governors and Directors of the Bank of England,"—Three times three. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN then proposed the health of the Chairman and Directors of the East India Company, with thanks for their offers of accommodation on the • late occasion ; of the Governor and Directors of the Bank of England; and that of the Governor and Directors of the South Sea Company. To the latter body he offered his warmest acknowledgments for the readiness and zeal to afford accommodation to Lloyd's, which had been evinced by all belonging to it, whether di rectors - or subordinate officers ; and - liehOped that, notw,th standing some inconvenience must hate been felt by Ldi viduals, the temporary arriingernenf 'tyltich..bad been made was, on the whole, advantageous and saiSiiretory. The - CHAIRMAN next proposed the cohihi i ssioners of Ex chequer Bills and West India Claims, wlf6 had also rendeied considerable service to. Lloyd's ; and he 'fillowed it up v,ith the health; of the four Members of Parliament present—for Sunderland, London, Whitby, and PaiSlev. He hoped he might say, without disparageMent to We-present Hous , !, of Commons, that there was such a lamentable want of com mercial men in it, that it was fortunate to have four Gentlemen who would pay such zealous attention to the interests of com merce and manufactures as those to' who toast applied. Mr. Alderman TrromnsoN, as the senior member present, returned thanks, and regretted that the country was dept ived of the aid of so able and uncompromising as advocate of com mercial interests as the Chairman. He tioncluded by prcros ing " Prosperity to Lloyd's." The next toast was - Mr. Crawford and the Merchants of the City of London." •Mr. CIZANYFOLD returned thanks, and pledged himself to do the best that circumstances would allow with regard to a re peal of the duty on marine insurances. To show the onerous effect of this impost, he mentioned that it actually amounts to one-tenth of all premiums received by the underwriters, and that on the Continent, while tho 'insured pay less, the under writers receive mare than in this country. He proposed the health of the Chairman. Mr. ROBINSON returned thanks, and expressed the gratifi cation which he derived from a connection with a body which, from a small beginning; had grown up to be one of the most mighty establishments in'the known "world. He hoped the dealings of. Lloyd's would; evdrife•conducted with the regula rity, punctuality, and fidelity .Wiltchlred hitherto characterised them, and there would be'no fear of its - prosTtPity. Amongst the benefits which it conferred upon the public, were the esta blishment of agencies all over the world, and the earliest pos sible communication of commercial intelligence from all quarters. It had -also signalised itself by repeated contribu tions for beneVolent and . p_triotic purposes, amongst which wa s a contribution of 1,6001. for the Canadians, when invaded by the United States. lie was naturally proud of a connecton with such a body, and returned thanks for the honour done.him. After a few more toasts the company broke up. A S. THE CAN A. IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE. (From the Buffalo Star, Dec. 29.) -. THE BRITISH OUTRAGE—OUR SOIL INVADED —BURNING OF THE STEAMER CAROLINE— BUTCHERY OF TWENTY AMERICAN CITI ZENS BY LOYAL TROOPS. The startling intelligence brought by express from Buffilo on Saturday night is more than confirmed ! What was then deemed incredible is proved to be horrid reality ! Our shore has been invaded ! An American vessel has been attacked,_ set on fire, arid sent over the Falls of Niagara by a foreign force. Unthm.ed American Citizens have been brutally butchered by Britiih soldiery ! an d th e i r d eath must bo avenged - 1 T'he'Lion of England cannot feast upon the blood of freemen' with impunity ! Twice already has he been bearded by the Eagle of the North, and again must his pride be brought low by the strong arm of the free ! The horrid details of this damning outrage, as we have them , • from an eye-witness, are these On Friday afternoon the steam-boat Caroline, Captain Ap pleton, came down from Buffalo to Schlosher ' with passen gers, and subseque n tly pissed over to Navy Island, with a party of gentlemen, who wished to visit the island. Before dark she again returned to SchloLher, where she was to lay during the night. The tavern aceommOdations at the place being limited, and a large numb; ,r of persons having collected there out of cu . riesity, - under the - expectation that an attack would be male (luring the night upon the island, all 'the berths in the boati7ere made up (20) and 1i or 20 mattresses spread upon the floor. These Were all fillecli as the steward and captain assert, and several besides were known to 170 asleep under the awn ing upon the deck. The whole number on board could not have been less than 45 or 50. Some 10 or 20 of them are missing. They Were Without doubt murdered, and have Bono, over the Falls. At 12 o'clock all appeared in a profound slumber. A few minutes after that hour, however, the boat was attacked by what afterwards appeared to be five-eight oared boats, each contained from 10 to 16 . regular British troops in sailor uniform. Captain Handy, of Buffalo, commandant of a schooner on Lake Erie, was awoke by the tumult below : and immediately upon discovering his danger, he rushed for the companion way. Before, however, he reached the deck he was met by a soldier, whose arms he caught hold of, making the remark that it was not possible he would attack an unarmed man, but he had scarcely mnde the remark, when he was struck a blow upon the head with a sabre, which laid bare his skull for several inches, and knocked him again back into the cabin. The ruffian accompanied the blow with this remark— " There, take that, and go to h-11, you d--d rebel." He fell upon thQ body of a black man, who had been killed by the murderers ; he soon, however, regained his feet, leaped from the stern window, and swam to the- shore. Captain Handy had on a fur cap, with a thick front'-piece, which, doubtless, saved his life. Captain King, of Buffalo, after having reached the deck, had a sabre aimed-at 'his head. To guard the blow, he raised his rizlit the sabre fell upon his shoulder, leaving a frip,iliful' gaah. Another blow followed, which nearly severed Lis aril' at tlis! wrist. He, however, escaped, but is not expected to live. Captain Applebee also reached the deck, but was knocked overboard by a blow upon the head from a musket. Although severely !gunned, Captain Applebee succeeded in swimming to the shore. The engineer escaped from the boat; but in his retreat he received a stab from a bayonet. Two hands leaped from a window, and escaped unharmed. Captain Case, who owns the Caroline, also escaped unin jured, as did - also two or three others. Horrid as are the details already given, the most diabolical act remains yet to be told. Upon the discovery of the tumult many in the cabin attempted to hide front the monsters who were murdering their associates so indiscriminately. Among these was the cabin-boy of the boat, an interesting lad of twelve years. He secreted himself in a cup-board, but he was soon discovered, upon which he fell upon his knees and begged for his life, innocently remarking, " You ain't going to kill me, are you ?" The brutish reply was, "We give no quar ter," and he was run through the body with a bayonet with such force as to penetrate the back part of the cupboard. A slash or two from a sabre followed, and the innocent and un fortunate boy slept the sleep of death. This scene was ob served by Captain King, who remarked that of all the scenes of peril and death which he had witnessed, that was the most savage and awful. When the work of slaughter and death was complete, the murderers plundered the boat, broke up the cabin furniture, set her on fire, towed her out into the river, and permitted her to float over the Falls. When she reached the centre of the river, she was a solid mass of fire. The flames continued to ascend, with terrific &enmity, until she reached the rapids on the west side of Goat Island. She then broke in pieces, and, in a moment, all was total darkness. Several gentlemen who witnessed the heart-rending spec tacle affirm, that while the boat was in flames they saw per sans moving upon the deck. While this may be so, we hope. it may only have been the work'ngs of their imaginations. As soon as the fire on the boat was visible, the murdered gave three cheers for Victoria, a large transparent signal was raised at Chippewa, to guide the direction of the boats to the harbour, and reiterated shouts were distinctly heard from the British troops. And yet in a dispatch received in this city by express from MeNab to Mr. Garrow, marshal of this district, the former asserts that the destruction of the boat was unau- t!:orized. He must deem the American people the srane;;;e ignorant fools that those are over whom he tyrannizes, and who kiss the rod that smites them. If the act was unautho— rized, the 50 or GO murdere►s will be delivered up to justice. If they are not, thcre is a law of redress which can be rut in force. When the boats were returningla fire was opened upon them from the island, but as the night was dark, the result was not known. In the course of Saturday forenoon, Mr. West, of this city, crossed over to the Canada side, below the falls, for the pur pose of ascertaining whether any bodies had floated upon shore. After encountering the fiery glances of forty or fifty savages stationed at this point, he was escorted into the officers' apartment, and bluntly told that no bodies had been dis covered, and he was at liberty immediately to return. I'e did return, and on his way back observed in the eddy, many portions of the wreck, and a part of the body of one of the murdered inmates of the unfortunate steam-boat. In recording this horrid tragedy, we dare not give utterance: to cur feelings. But we must say, that if this outrage he not: speedily avenged, not by simpering diplomacy either, but by blood, our national honour deserves the indignity it has re ceived. P. S. Since the above was written we have seen a gentle man who left Niagara Falls on Saturday evening at 5 o'clock. He says that the number murdered is estimated at from 15 to 20. When the boats landed there were two spies on board, one of whom wa3 seen by the watch on the steam-boat, to shoot the first man killed. The murderers were armed with swords, pistols, muskwa, and axes. The axe was the principal weapon used to murder the persons sleeping in the cabin ; and they employed it i'ildis crininately. It was a horrid butchery. 'rho contenThlatioa o: it curdles our blood. (From the New York .1116rning Herald, Jan. 4.)
